I'm with dave, in fact for most of the summer I took the shield off and just wore a pair of ballistic sun glasses, I also keep a clear pair in the trunk. I would wear a 3/4 helmet if I didnt feel soo uncomfortable wearing it, for some reason I actually enjoy the wind in my face, even on uber cold days

I ride with a dark smoke visor, clear if at night. I always keep a part of wrap-around safety glasses with me if I get caught out at night without my clear visor...works fine.

I am thinking about getting one of the dual visor Scorpion helmets. I just dont like how the liner feels. Its kinda rough and itchy compared to my EXo-700
